As VC-backed e-bike startups went bankrupt, bootstrapped Lectric grew

Lectric eBikes, a Phoenix, Arizona-based company known for its practical and affordable XP series electric bikes, has launched three new brands so far this year — a Juiced Bikes relaunch, a new Juiced Powersports brand, and now a premium adventure brand called Monarc — an expansion strategy that runs counter to the wave of bankruptcies that have plagued the sector.

Together, Lectric has put about $10 million toward these initiatives, CEO Levi Conlow told TechCrunch.
